Preferred Label : mitochondrial membranes;
MeSH definition : The two lipoprotein layers in the MITOCHONDRION. The outer membrane encloses the entire
mitochondrion and contains channels with TRANSPORT PROTEINS to move molecules and
ions in and out of the organelle. The inner membrane folds into cristae and contains
many ENZYMES important to cell METABOLISM and energy production (MITOCHONDRIAL ATP
SYNTHASE).;
MeSH synonym : membrane, mitochondrial; membranes, mitochondrial; mitochondrial membrane;
MeSH hyponym : mitochondrial membrane, inner; mitochondrial membrane, outer; Membrane, Outer Mitochondrial; Membranes, Outer Mitochondrial; Mitochondrial Membranes, Outer; Outer Mitochondrial Membranes; Outer Mitochondrial Membrane; Inner Mitochondrial Membranes; Membrane, Inner Mitochondrial; Membranes, Inner Mitochondrial; Mitochondrial Membranes, Inner; Inner Mitochondrial Membrane;
